P E S A W A T K U

Alkisah menghitung hari
Di taman kanak-kanak
Kelinci putih hendak berlari
Menyeret layang-layang hijaunya
ditimpa angin yang sedikit lebih berisik
Ia bergegas, berlarian tanpa henti
Menerobos ranting yang patah 
Daun yang menguning
Embun yang berseliweran, membikin kabut
Ia menyebutnya awal mula kehidupan
Sebab ketika matahari yang belum juga panas muncul
mencium keningnya dan berucap: Pergilah!
Tak ada yang menantikanmu pulang
Kecuali keberangkatan

Lalu diterbangkannya layang-layang itu
Dibiarkannya meninggi
Bumi nampak semakin jauh 
Seekor kelinci pun sendiri
Namun ia teringat selembar kertas origami
Terkapar di atas bangku
Sisa kemarin, atau beberapa hari yang lalu

Dan ranting patah yang terbentur ke tanah
Daun yang mulai gompel dan koyak
Begitu pun embun perlahan menipis
Diambilnya semua
Dibungkuskan ke selembar kertas
Begitu pun mimpi-mimpinya
Tak satu pun tersisa

Kelinci putih pun melipat tubuh kertas 
Satu persatu makin rapat, meruncing, dan seimbang
Dalam hitungan ke tiga, dibuangnya pesawat kertas itu
Membawa jiwanya, mengembara

Puisi Terjemahan William Wordsworth - I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud

Hari ini, saya mencoba lagi menerjemahkan sebuah sajak berjudul I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud yang ditulis oleh William Wordsworth. Selamat membaca kawan! Semoga apa yang kita baca hari ini, membuat kita merasa penuh dan bahagia.  *** Umpama Segumpal Awan Aku Berkelana Aku berkelana umpama segumpal awan Yang melayang di ketinggian melampaui lembah dan bukit, Ketika tak sengaja kudapati sejauh mata memandang, Sehamparan bunga-bunga daffodil; Di dekat danau, di bawah rimbun pepohonan, Bunga-bunga daffodil melambai dan menari dikibaskan angin. Tak henti-hentinya laksana bintang-gemintang yang berkilatan Dan mengerjap di keluasan bima sakti, Bintang-gemintang itu, meregang dalam lintasan tanpa batas Di sepanjang tepian danau yang luas: Sekilas kusaksikan berpuluh ribu, Bunga-bunga daffodil saling beradu lewat tarian yang begitu lincah. Ombak di sebelahnya menggulung dan pecah; namun bunga-bunga daffodil Menghempaskan kilauan ombak itu dalam sukacita: Seorang penyair menjumpai dirinya te...

The Complexity

Last two days wasn't simple. I entered my bedroom and started to complain, "Why there's no one seemed to understand and listen to me? All of us has two ears but one mouth seemed louder and enough to create deafening sound that forced everything to lend their ears with no willingness."  I slammed the door. I threw my bag to the floor. I punched the wall that if they could talk, they would shout at me to stop. I kept punching the wall several times to mute the fire of the anger that burned my heart and head. The way I punched the wall was enough to break the bones of my hands into pieces. I might not show people that I was furious. I would just hide it till I found my safest place, I would resume to lose my sanity.  My chest was aching. My hand was numb. I found out that being destructive, would create a bigger pain than the anger did. That's when I gained the logical thinking back, I commenced holding the horse.  I moved backwards. I landed my feet on the bed and l...
